  • Patent number: 10634034
    Abstract: A common rail comprises a shell and a pressure detection apparatus and a pressure adjustment apparatus that are installed on the shell. The shell comprises an inlet passage, an outlet passage, at least one conveyance port that is connected to the inlet passage, and at least one flow return port that is connected to the outlet passage. The pressure detection apparatus is connected to the inlet passage. The pressure adjustment apparatus is connected between the inlet passage and the outlet passage. The pressure adjustment apparatus can connect or disconnect the inlet passage and the outlet passage. Also disclosed is a carbamide spraying system having such a common rail. Because a carbamide solution returned from a nozzle is first gathered inside the common rail and then returns to a carbamide tank through the outlet passage and a return flow pipe, the length of the return flow pipe is reduced.
